Australian data storage. Concerned with data sovereignty? eSpaces is hosted in Australia.

All the good bits

Researchers can easily create eSpaces – web-based sites – that allow content, files, and pages to be stored securely, with the flexibility of access via the web and mobile devices. The system provides granular permissions, allowing a range of types of security. This makes eSpaces perfect for spanning a range of researcher needs, from public-facing research portfolio or project pages, through to a secure collaborative environment, and anything in between.

Interested?

eSpaces is currently in beta testing for an upcoming public release to the Australian research community. Once available, any Australian researcher may create their own eSpace and start collaborating with colleagues - inside and across institutions - at no cost.
